I notice that Pandora almost always pops in the BMW Connected menu (or media menu) really quickly, and I don’t even have the Pandora app open on my iPhone. I set a memory button for Spotify thinking maybe this would help, but when I press the button it works sometimes, but usually it says “function not available”. To get this to work, I have to close out of Spotify on my phone, and then open it again, and then it usually works. When f I look on my phone, Spotify is open and playing, and it says its connected to my car. Sometimes it starts playing the 1st song in my iTunes music on my phone instead of Spotify (and it restarts this song a few times). Sometimes it says, “app loading”, but it never finishes loading. If it does, and I click on it, sometimes is starts playing Spotify and all is good. Sometimes Spotify shows up and sometimes it does not.
At this point I can select BMW connected in my iDrive and see the apps, calendar, etc. I start the car, and shortly thereafter the car links up with phone and the BMW connected app. When I get in the car, I have the BMW Connected app and Spotify open and running on my phone (I believe I read that you need to have the apps open).
I have an iPhone 6, paired with the car, set up to stream music over Bluetooth, set up for apps, etc. Current version of software on iDrive and phone for all apps. I have a 2018 540i with connected and connected+. Does anyone have any tips or tricks to get it to star more reliably?
